Grand jury adds charges

ELYRIA -- A 23-year-old Lorain man was served with a supplemental indictment for an incident in which he was arrested in November for firing a gunshot into his sister's home while her children were present.

Dustin Young was indicted for felonious assault and discharging firearms into a home. He was previously indicted for two counts of domestic violence and another count of discharging firearms into a home.

The sister told police Young came to her West Sixth Street home about 5 p.m. He was yelling at her children to stop following him around the house and poked his sister in the face with his index finger, the report said. She threatened to call the police, and he threw a pot of spaghetti onto the floor, grabbed his sister's phone and smashed it, the report stated.

Young then pulled out a pistol and fired a single round through the glass pane of the front door. The bullet passed through the glass and entered the wall next to the couch on which the sister's 4-and 5-year-old sons were sitting, according to the report.
